New Kitchener Waterloo Restaurants

This is the latest restaurant chain to come to Kitchener Waterloo; the Honest Lawyer recently announced plans to move into the main floor of 305 King Street in Kitchener, CARA has opened three new restaurants at the Boardwalk (Montana’s, Milestone’s and a Swiss Chalet), Prime Pubs just opened Fionn MacCools in Deer Ridge, Moxie’s is coming to Kitchener,  Charcoal Group is opening two Beertowns (Uptown Waterloo & Cambridge) and there will be more restaurants opening in KW soon.

Many of the large restaurant brands are actively looking for sites in Kitchener and Waterloo, and one popular restaurant has recently found space in Waterloo – but they haven’t publicly announced it yet and I don’t want to ruin their surprise.

Why Retail is Drawn to Kitchener Waterloo

As we talked about in 2011 (Kitchener Waterloo Commercial Real Estate is HOT),  major brands like Apple, Target, CARA and Prime Pubs seeking to establish or expand their presence in Kitchener Waterloo.  Why?  These brands want access to our market place – high levels of employment & a  lower cost (but not standard) of living means that residents of Waterloo Region have more disposable income to spend, and retailers want to tap into that.  We expect this trend to continue.

    @KWinsider @benjaminbach Any word on what maybe happening at Bridgeport & King in #Uptown? That #Uptown Hotel potentially? ;)

    @daisyarseneault post office lot ?

  17. DaisyArseneault February 1, 2012 at 6:31 pm #

    @benjaminbach Yes! I’m dying to know what may appear there. I think it’s a HOT spot! Do I have the right hunch?

  18. benjaminbach February 1, 2012 at 6:36 pm #

    @daisyarseneault the vendor was accepting bids/expressions of interest until yesterday, too early to know who/what will go there

  19. DaisyArseneault February 1, 2012 at 6:40 pm #

    @benjaminbach I’m hopeful it’s something wonderful! It’s my neighbourhood. ;)

    @bptweets yes, there are a number of chains that will be opening soon in KW
